Abstract
Oxidation of selenite to selenate by alkaline ferricyanide catalysed by osmium tetroxide was followed by direct and indirect procedures. Either the ferrocyanide was titrated with selenite solution at 8–10% overall alkalinity or vice versa using amperometric or potentiometric end point. In the indirect procedure the excess ferricyanide was determined by amperometric titration with arsenious oxide at 10–15% alkalinity, and the ferrocyanide with ceric sulphate using o-phenanthroline or amperometric indicator. A cerimetric determination of ferricyanide based on this reaction is described.
